There are a lot of evnts in my area that are not covered by photographers, for example I started shooting a Bicycle race for the past couple months and have put out a post on there bullitin board and have been getting great results, but not every event has a bullitin board. Do I hand out Flyers, Business card etc? I have contacted some of the youth sports offices and received the go ahead but dont know how to advertise.
All comments will be graetly appreciated

For the youth sports, see if they have a bulletin board at the concession stand, or just leave some cards up there. When you are shooting a game, Introduce yourself to the coach and walk up to the parents and introduce yourself. Explain what you are doing and hand them a business card.
Be sure to know what your prices are because you will be asked. Don't forget to mention that the league has arranged for you to "provide this service".

You might try google ads. Could pass you some more visitors due to higher google rankings. Just need to add those ads to your site and they'll pop over.

go to cafepress.com or something and get some t-shirts made w/ your URL on them and what you do... that will help a LOT.

get a custom license plate frame while your at it from them and consider talking w/ a local vinyl sticker company about getting some custom cut stickers for your car - it can turn your car into a tax write-off as well

have LOTS of business cards and consider getting a 5x7 or so 2 sided full color flyer that you can also hand out at these events and / or stick under the windshield wipers of cars in the parking lot
